it is by far impossible in the marking process to be disadvantaged, the markers cannot determine which student number does advance, so this stage is really when they seperate the worse students in advance and the good students in standard.
We get taught equally, perhaps the students in advanced grasp the concepts of doing sections quicker than us, some students are lucky in a sense that they have good teachers as well... so it all depends but there's no intentional disadvantages drawn between the advanced and standard people.Originally posted by blue_chameleon
Wot about the fact that the advanced students get taught different things in their course, some could say its the first section would be easier 4 them than it would b for standard students.
The different information taught would have to give a level of advantage to the advanced students........ wouldnt it?
Not quite, the AOS would really be able to distinguish between the good english students, perhaps a student is good at comprehension and creative writing in standard while the english adv sucked at it, that can really show alot.
